 Helter Skelter

 

Listen to the children

You all need to grow up

One day will turn on you

Helter Skelter.

 

Been abused enough

They don’t understand.

They’re afraid of conflict

Innocence takes a stand.

 

Go to your room

Momma’s voice screams

Disrespecting me

It isn’t their dreams.

 

Adults in the middle

That need to listen...

Their innocent children

Are being blistered.

 

God, help the innocent

Protect and shelter

They need to be saved

From Helter Skelter.

Hi Deborah, As always a very fluid poem. Very easy to understand. We must always be careful what is said around our children. You made that very clear with your fine writing. I always love reading You......GOD BLESS YOU and YOURS.
